Dribs and drabs of snow will add up over the next few days, slowly building slabs. Avoid wind-drifted areas where the surface snow is harder. If you find a drifted spot, you can trigger an avalanche. Look for recent avalanches or cracking in the new snow to indicate potential danger. If you see these conditions, find a spot with a slope angle of less than 30 degrees to ride.
